Hello again group 11. We're very near the end of our time together. I've enjoyed the opportunity to share with those of you who contributed to the discussions. I wish I felt more like we had really connected. We appear to have more questions than answers, but at least we're asking the tough questions. To me, that indicates acknowledging a problem exists. I think one of the dangers here is to become complacent. For our own sake, and the sakes of our children, let us not be complacent PLEASE.

I also enjoyed the sharing of ideas that wehad. I welcomed all the responses that weregiven, even the ones that didn't agree withme. I liked the fact that you could speakwithout being censored. I will miss all of you. If any of you are interested in keepingin touch, I will give anyone who wants it, myemail address. Bye bye, it's been real.

Let me also say i had a wonderful time reading and adding input to our discussions. It's nice to know someone actually cares about what you think! I will miss this group very much. Wow i didn't even realize it was Oct.4th.

I just want to say thanks to all of you for expressing your HONEST opinions. I never thought about some of these issues and it has really opened a lot of discussions at our house. I'll miss this place, but I too would love to continue the discussion from time to time. THANKS!!

What a great opportunity this has been. Even though I didn't post as often as I would have liked; it was inspiring to read such thought-provoking posts. For all of our differences, we are so very much alike--we care to want to make a difference!
